Hello All.
One of the most frustrating or annoying things when masking or removing the masking tape from a model is all the small bits of masking tape.
It sticks to fingers, scissors, knife blades and tweezers. A total pain to get off while you're working.

Solution, a lint roller from the dollar store.
These rollers and refills cost maybe a couple dollars but they are sticky! Set it on the work table where you are working with the masking tape and touch the tape-fragment stuck to you or the tools and presto, off it goes...
When you run out of surface to stick the pieces to, just peal and expose a fresh sheet on the roller. 

Take that, annoying little bits of tape.
